Did You Just Mansplain me?

On our drive to school today, along our route, there were signs saying:

No Parking.

House moving.

Signs were on both sides of the street.

Me: Why do they put no parking on this side of the street? No one parks here. They only park over there.

T: Mhmmmmm.

Me: The signs say no parking house moving but they don’t even park on this side of the street.

Just the other side. I mean until you get up there. And where is the house? How do you know which one is moving?

T: What?

Me: The signs. Why do they have on this side too? They only park on the other side.

T: Mom the signs say no parking house moving. Why do they have on this side of the road? Parking is only on the other side of the street.

Me: Did you just mansplain me?

T: No I just was saying that they don’t park on this side of the street.

Me: You literally repeated what I just said.

T: No I said it first.

Me (laughing so hard I am crying): No you did not. I did. And you just repeated it right back at me.

T: No I said it first.

Me: No you did not. I did.

I pulled into the drop off lane and both of us were laughing so hard.

T gave me a kiss and hopped out of the car.

I drove off with a smile on my face.

It was an awesome start to the morning.

Happy Valentine’s Day

The last time I had T for the full week I reminded him that I had him today. He wanted to know what that meant. I told him that I would at least like a card.

I woke up this morning to flowers. That I had to wake T up to find because he had put them up with my plants so the cats would not get at them. Smart cookie my boy is.
